GF2 is a lot bigger than GF1, and certain features have changed; Living Tools for example cannot be used separately anymore, it's all or nothing. Before you could use a couple tools fallowed by Unlock, which saved a lot of tools.

There are four sects instead of three, and there are a couple new creations.

Since there are Shapers all around there are trainers in GF2, so no more canister spree. If you want to gain the most power possible buy two levels in whatever skill before using a canister, as trainers will not train above two levels.

Shops have limited gold, and lots of gold is needed.

Some people around here set off fireworks last night. They were close enough for me to be able to smell them, but a couple never exploded.

As far as I can tell it's just a wandering spirit. If attacked it will defend itself, but other than that it just wanders around.

He got sick from a bad canister, so he's too damaged to fight.

FAQ/walkthrough is up in Geneforge Series

Schrodinger - Not sure if these would be of help to you or not, but here are a few commonly needed SDFs (used as any cheat code).

sdf 34 5 1 - Master Hoge is not in Bulwark Inn or attacks the PC rather than running away. (Makes it so the commander will speak with you.)

sdf 100 4 0 - Never used canisters.

sdf 81 1 1 - Bug fix; Completes Vrabel's quest in Icy End to kill Orois Blaze in Breeding Valley.

sdf 79 4 0 - Undoes Icy End going hostile after PC entered the brood cave in Spire Forrest.

No, Alwan won't deplete your essence; only the creations you make will.

Do you have any creations? If so, they will keep a portion of your essence until they are killed or you absorb them.

Press the keys Shift D and type:

Sdf 34 5 1

Edit: If anyone is still having problems with Hoge attacking you at this point (instead of running away) the above code will cause him to run off without going hostile, so there is no chance of him attacking you or staying for the fight. Each encounter with him will remain the same; he will still unleash Clawbugs and run away, and the dialogue with him is unaffected.

Came for the games, stayed for the good people. Most people here are intelligent and have a good sense of humor. I like the community feel, and the way everyone relates to one another.

Answering questions in game forums works very nicely for upping one's post count. When I do a search within GF3 it seems I posted fewer times than it feels like, odd.

My record is in the upper twenties during these elections, and after hearing Drakey's I feel like slightly less of a spammer :P

Edit: I am typically second on the list of top posters; one month I was third. Only one time was I number one, and don't want to be again. It is easy to top the list without inane posting. Let me know if I'm too spammy.

I like Fyora/Cryoa for low levels because you can make them very early on, and they are relatively powerful and inexpensive; Drayk/Cryodrayk works well for higher levels.

The canister of Create Drayk is in the Inner Keep on Dhonal's Island, northeast of Lord Rahul's quarters.

Do you have creations? And what are your stats?

Spoilers below:

When you are given the quest to kill Lord Rahul you are given the Summoning Orb. The result of walking up to Lord Rahul with the orb is not as the rebels intended it to be, and it ends up knocking you out instead. Lord Rahul has you thrown in jail, and when you make your great escape you leave through that door.

You know Thuryl, and you certainly know me :P

BTW: Being the number one spammer can be an achievement or an annoyance depending how you got there. Using trolls to boost one's post count would be an example of the latter.

Think about scenarios you like and the kind of quests they used, or even the quests from the trilogy and modify them to fit your story.
